Conciencia

The song 'Conciencia' by Mario Pereyra Y Su Banda delves into the internal conflict between the heart's desires and the mind's rational warnings. The lyrics describe a magnetic attraction to a woman whose kiss has the power to transform the singer. The woman's allure is described as magical and mysterious, indicating an enchanting quality that is irresistible.

The central theme of the song is the struggle between conscience (conciencia) and heart. The conscience advises against falling for this woman, suggesting that there may be reasons why this love is not advisable or is doomed. However, the heart, driven by emotion and desire, pushes the singer towards what he perceives as an inferno of passion. This inferno is both dangerous and enticing, as it is described as an abyss of sweet and tender kisses. The song captures the essence of being torn between what one knows is right and what one feels is irresistible.

The narrative of the song suggests that once love has taken hold of the heart, reason and advice become meaningless. The singer acknowledges that there is no alternative but to surrender to love, to give it 'sky and wings,' and to embrace the beauty in what is difficult. This romantic idealism celebrates the power of love to overcome obstacles, even when reason suggests otherwise. The song's portrayal of love as a force beyond control resonates with the timeless theme of the heart's triumph over the mind.
